in certain cases (before windows reinstall) you might want to backup your existing long list of (like mine) bookmarks in firefox, this is really simple to do & method as follows.(used firefox 6.0.2 for description)

open firefox browser

in menu, click bookmarks & click " show all bookmarks "

in the opened window (called " library ") you can see there is a drop down menu named " import and backup "

click in the menu and select appropriate action for you, if you want to backup > select location & type a name to identify backup file (normally it takes " bookmarks-current year-month-date " as a file name) and click save.

you can reverse the same process to restore bookmarks, click " import and backup " point to restore > click " choose file " > specify the saved file and click open, done.

scenario like this, server running win 2003 R2 with terminal server (located at head office), stores located at remote location, stores manager wants to access head office server to operate ERP software, end of the day he wants to shutdown head office server using remote desktop (because he is last person to use ERP software) but when he try to shutdown remote server, then he realize there is no option to shutdown server, because it isn't available.

above is real world problem, (i personally had this one & find the solution) details as follows.

inorder to do things right, you have to do some configurations in server, follow these steps
